Hello, I’m an experienced teacher and tutor with nearly 20 years of teaching in primary education. Over the years, I’ve taught children of all abilities and backgrounds, and I know that every child learns in their own unique way. My goal is simple: to build confidence, make learning enjoyable, and help your child achieve their very best.

My lessons are friendly, engaging, and tailored to your child’s needs. I start by finding out what they’re good at and where they might need a little extra support. From there, I create lessons that are structured but flexible, making sure your child feels encouraged and motivated. Whether it’s English, maths, science, or building general learning skills, I adapt each session so it’s the right fit for them.

I use a mixture of explanations, games, practical activities, and interactive tools to keep lessons fun and memorable. For younger learners, I often weave in creative tasks to spark curiosity. For older children, I focus on problem-solving and deeper thinking skills that prepare them for the next stage in their learning journey.

Parents often tell me that their children not only make real progress, but also begin to enjoy learning again. I also provide regular feedback, so you can see how your child is improving week by week.

If you’d like a supportive, patient, and encouraging tutor who will bring out the best in your child, I’d love to hear from you.
